Staff Developer, AI Evaluation & Reliability

Caseware is one of Canada's original Fintech companies, having led the global audit and accounting software industry for over 30 years, with more than 500,000 users across 130 countries and available in 16 different languages. While you might not have heard of us (yet) over 36,000 accounting and audit professionals list Caseware as a skill on their LinkedIn profiles!

As we build the next generation of intelligent, cloud-based solutions for auditors, accountants, and financial professionals, agentic AI is a core pillar of our strategy. We are developing a reusable, enterprise-grade agentic AI platform that enables product teams across Caseware Cloud to safely, consistently, and efficiently deliver AI-powered capabilities in highly regulated environments. 

We are looking for a Staff Developer – AI Evaluation & Reliability to raise the bar on the quality, trustworthiness, and operational reliability of our AI platform. This is a senior individual contributor role with broad technical influence and leadership expectations. You will own how our agentic systems are evaluated, validated, and governed in production, and help define the standards that product teams across Caseware rely on. 

In this role, you will provide technical stewardship for evaluation frameworks, reliability mechanisms, and compliance-aligned controls that sit at the center of Caseware’s AI strategy. You’ll partner closely with Staff Engineers, Product Management, QA, Security, Data, and Infrastructure teams to ensure the platform scales reliably, meets enterprise and regulatory standards, and delivers measurable value to both product teams and customers. 

📍 Location: This is a fully remote position located in Colombia.
